"Do we still have the videos from when the kids were little?" My mum asks.

"Of course we do." My aunt says and goes to get them.

She comes back minutes later and puts the first one in the television. The video starts by my aunt, being a small child, smiling at the camera.

"Lucy, what is it that you're doing?" My grandmas voice rings.

"I'm sliding on the slip-n-slide." She replies and does what she says she's doing.

"Christina, what are you doing?" The camera focuses on my mum.

"I jumping into the pool, unlike Luce." She says and does a cannonball into the huge pool in the video.

We watch most of all of the videos in ten hours, and we're still not to the date where Liv is born yet.

About two hours later, we get to the birth of Liv.

"Can you tell the camera hi?" My uncle asks my aunt Danielle.

"Can you help me give birth to the child?" She fires back.

Soon Liv is born and the two parents are gazing down at their newborn and tears form in my eyes.

It takes a couple more hours for them to get to me and when it finally does, I silently cheer. We watch the rest of the videos, that were recorded up until my grandpa's death.

I look around at all of the people sleeping and realize that I'm the only one awake in the room.

Home movies are the best, but they also tired you out when you're trying to get through them all, but they're still the best things you'll ever have for memories.
